In the name of Christ we gather
Author: Shirley Erena Murray (b. 1931) Meter: 8.7.8.7.8.7 Appears in 6 hymnals Scripture: 1 Corinthians 11:26 Lyrics: 1 In the name of Christ we gather,
in the name of Christ we sing,
as we celebrate the promise
of your servant's offering,
here ordained to lead God's people
at the Gospel's beckoning.
2 Sons and daughters of the Spirit,
we are called to teach and care,
called as were the first disciples,
Christ's own ministry to share,
and in bread and wine and water
sacraments of grace declare.
3 In our preaching, praying, caring
may your word spring into life;
in our time of doubt and challenge,
may its truth affirm belief;
and in days of pain and darkness,
may it heal our guilt and grief.
4 Word of joy, enlivening Spirit,
more than lover, parent, friend,
born in Jesus, born in Mary,
born in us, that love extend,
grow within your chosen servant(s),
life of God that has no end! Topics: The Church Celebrates Ordination; Gathering; Gospel Call Used With Tune: TANTUM ERGO SACRAMENTUM (GRAFTON)

When grief is raw and music goes unheard
Author: Brian Wren (b. 1936) Appears in 6 hymnals Scripture: 1 Corinthians 11:23-26 Lyrics: 1 When grief is raw and music goes unheard,
and thought is numb,
we have no polished phrases to recite.
In Christ we come
to hear the old familiar words:
'I am the resurrection. I am life'.
2 God, give us time for gratitude and tears,
and make us free
to grieve, remember, honour, and delight.
Let love be strong
to bear regrets and banish fears:
'I am the resurrection. I am life'.
3 The height and breadth of all that love prepares
soars out of time,
beyond our speculation and our sight.
The cross remains
to ground the promise that it bears:
'I am the resurrection. I am life'.
4 All shall be judged, the greatest and the least,
and all be loved,
till every hurt is healed, all wrong set right.
In bread and wine
we taste the great homecoming feast,
and in the midst of death we are in life. Topics: The Church Celebrates Death and Grieving; Eternal Life; Funerals general; Grief; Jesus Teaching

the broken bread, the wine of life for me,
then let me share the peace with you, my neighbor,
and let the Spirit set our spirits free.
2 If at this table I have need of healing,
unbidden grief, relationship gone wrong,
then let me know the hands of God enfolding,
and let lament become believing song.
3 If at this table I forget the hungry,
the dispossessed and warfare’s spreading stain,
then let this bread become the bread of judgment,
this wine the sharp awareness of that pain.
4 If at this table I make dedication
to give my life in serving what is good,
then let my center be where God invites me,
and show the words of Jesus understood.
5 What faith I have, I bring to join this table,
what hope I hold, in Christ is taught and true;
with brothers, sisters, I will share the blessing,
the feast where God is making all things new. Topics: Dedication; Eucharist; Lord's Supper; Communion Used With Tune: FEASTDAY
